What types of exceptions should you catch?
The trickiest programming bugs are often caused by catching exceptions that you didn't mean to catch or handling exceptions in ways that obfuscate the actual error that's occurring. Which exceptions should you catch and which should you leave unhandled?

Well, it finally happened: X/Twitter and its *not-at-all predictable* owner decided that posting via API should come with a price tag.
So for now, I’m hitting pause on automated posts here. Apparently, even bots need a subscription these days.
Good news: PythonHub isn’t going anywhere. We’re active on other platforms. Just head over to our website and pick the one that works best for you.
See you outside the paywall 🙂🇺🇦

Array API adoption: Performance wins across the ecosystem
Adopting the Array API standard lets major Python libraries run the same code across backends like NumPy, PyTorch, CuPy, and JAX, unlocking dramatic speedups with minimal user changes. The broader impact is a more interoperable scientific Python ecosystem where GPU acceleration and new hardware become accessible without rewriting entire libraries.

What Most Python Developers Miss About Generators
Most Python developers view generators as a memory optimization, but their deeper value is controlling when computation happens and how data flows through a system. They enable lazy pipelines, backpressure handling, two-way communication, and patterns that extend naturally into async streaming architectures.
